| disolitude said: The problem with watercooling these days is that you really have to go all out and watercool everything or just stick with AIOs for the CPU. However recent intel CPUs (3770k, 4770k) really dont benefit from watercooling much. 2600k was able to do 5ghz and beyond as long as you cool it properly but these new ones tend to crap out at 4.8/4.9 no matter what you do or how you cool it. On the AMD side, the cpu does benefit from watercoolin but even at 5.2 ghz, it bottlenecks the GPUs with a proper GTX 780 sli that are overclocked and watercooled. |
But isn't that because Intel messed with the heat spreader replacing the solder they used with some thermal paste?
